Or simply have transfigured Sirius's heart into... well, just about
anything else. Even a botched transfiguration would do the job.

We're handicapped by our lack of knowledge of just what spells Harry
knows at this point, but, even though he may not know any curses
specifically intended to kill, surely he knows plenty of ways to
misuse magic to cause death or serious injury.
